Intelligence details

Why this is worth applying to

Worth considering if you are a Vietnam-based clinician or pharmacist who wants to move into pharma commercial work and is comfortable with target-driven field sales. Less suitable if you want remote work, clinical practice, or a purely scientific/medical affairs track.

Who should apply

Pharmacists, nurses, and physicians based in or willing to relocate to Hanoi who want to enter the pharmaceutical industry; IMGs and healthcare graduates with strong specialty therapeutic knowledge and comfort with commercial targets; clinicians with existing specialist networks in the relevant therapeutic area.

CV angle

Reframe real clinical experience as commercial-relevant capability: highlight therapeutic-area depth, experience communicating evidence-based product information to physicians and colleagues, patient counselling and adherence conversations, involvement in CME or journal club activities, and any cross-functional or stakeholder coordination. Quantify where possible (number of patients, specialties collaborated with, training sessions delivered) and avoid inventing sales figures or quota attainment you do not have.

Skills to highlight

  • Specialty therapeutic area knowledge
  • Communication with specialist physicians
  • Key opinion leader and stakeholder engagement
  • Scientific product detailing and evidence presentation
  • Territory and account planning
  • CRM and activity reporting
  • Patient counselling and adherence support
  • Cross-functional collaboration

Role summary

A field-based pharmaceutical sales position with Novartis in Hanoi covering specialty-care products, involving promotion to specialist physicians and healthcare institutions, territory and account management, KOL engagement, and achievement of sales targets. The posting provides only a title and company, so responsibilities and requirements are inferred from the standard medical representative role.
